A Romanian-American actress, producer, and visionary reshaping the future of cinema
Lavinia Postolache is a Romanian-American film, theater, and television actress whose magnetic presence on screen has quickly made her one of the most exciting talents to watch. Her path into entertainment began soon after graduating from the International University of Monaco, where she first honed her craft in TV commercials for top global brands. It didn’t take long for her natural charisma and drive to propel her into the world of independent and studio films, setting her on a path that now spans the globe.
Her breakthrough came with a striking performance in Nicolas Winding Refn’s The Neon Demon—a Cannes Palme d’Or nominee—sharing the screen with Elle Fanning and Keanu Reeves. Lavinia continued her ascent with Paramount+’s prestige limited series The Offer, acting alongside Miles Teller and Matthew Goode, and later with a captivating role in Damien Chazelle’s Academy Award-nominated epic Babylon, starring Brad Pitt and Margot Robbie.
But Lavinia’s ambition extends beyond acting. She is also the founder of Lavi Star, a bold production company designed to champion new voices and daring visions in cinema. With a mission to empower passionate filmmakers, Lavi Star positions itself as a creative powerhouse with the ability to shape the next era of storytelling.
Already, Lavi Star has produced April X, a sci-fi thriller directed by Michel Parandi, which premiered at the Rhode Island International Film Festival and is now making its rounds at festivals worldwide. Another highly anticipated project is Pearl, a gripping action drama in post-production. Written and directed by Marcos Efron, the film stars Scott Eastwood as Eli, with West Duchovny portraying the enigmatic Pearl.
Currently, Lavinia is in pre-production for Unlimited (working title), an electrifying crime drama set to combine Hollywood’s intensity with indie artistry. Designed with a powerhouse ensemble cast to be revealed soon, the film promises adrenaline-pumping action, layered characters, and a cinematic style that will captivate the world’s most prestigious festivals. Its highly anticipated premiere is slated for 2027.
From Monaco to Hollywood, Lavinia Postolache is more than just an actress—she’s a producer, a visionary, and a fearless woman determined to leave her mark on the global stage. Her journey is proof that talent paired with vision creates not just performances, but legacies.
